Before founding Mova Law Group, Chris began his legal career as a law clerk at one of Southern California’s largest and most prestigious personal injury law firms. During this time, he developed key litigation and negotiation skills. However, he became concerned by how large firms often treated clients like case numbers, focusing more on quick settlements than on maximizing client outcomes.
To change this, Chris started his own firm with a mission to handle fewer cases and provide each client with the attention and effort they deserve. He personally selects a skilled team committed to delivering quality legal services and achieving fair settlements.
Chris has since earned nationwide respect for his expertise in handling complex cases, especially those involving spinal and brain injuries. He also coaches other personal injury attorneys across the U.S. on best practices in case setup, negotiation, and litigation strategies.
Chris Movafagh maintains active memberships in several legal associations, including the San Diego County Bar Association, Los Angeles County Bar Association, San Bernardino County Bar Association, Consumer Attorneys of San Diego (CASD), and Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles (CAALA). Chris remains dedicated to securing justice and fair results for every client his firm represents.
